H-O-T-T-O-Oh no? The Austin City Limits Music Festival (ACL) is getting heat from some ticketholders after announcing that pop sensation Chappell Roan will now perform on Sunday of both weekends instead of Saturday.

On Friday afternoon, the fest announced that Chappell Roan – who was originally scheduled to perform at 4:20 p.m. on both Saturday, Oct. 5, and Saturday, Oct. 12 – will instead be performing at 6:45 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 6, and Sunday, Oct. 13. Caamp will take the Saturday slot Roan was originally set for.

This isn't major news for fest-goers who purchased 3-day passes, but it is for others. All sales of ACL wristbands and passes are final, meaning the festival doesn't offer refunds or exchanges.

That means anyone who purchased one-day Saturday passes thinking they would be seeing Roan is now faced with deciding if they want to purchase another pass to see her on Sunday. On the other hand, fans who were unable to purchase Saturday tickets due to high demand now have another shot.

Sunday GA, GA+, VIP and Platinum tickets for both weekends are currently available while supplies last. Three-day tickets are also still available for Weekend 2, but Weekend 1 3-day wristbands have a waitlist.

Some fans aren't happy with the festival's decision to move Roan to Sunday. Several ticketholders have commented on the fest's Facebook post, saying they specifically bought Saturday tickets to see her and now they don't know what to do.

"Not cool at all," Caroline Bonesteel Williams commented. "We bought passes for Saturday so my daughter could see her."

While it's not completely clear at this time why ACL moved Roan's set to an entirely different day, it's not the first time that a festival or large event has adjusted its plans due to her popularity.

Austin icon Gary Clark to play free show launching wife's maternity pop-up

Bumpsuit is now open at the Domain Northside.

Austin icon Gary Clark Jr. is playing a free hometown show on Friday, December 13, to celebrate the opening of his wife, Nicole Trunfio's trendy maternity store, Bumpsuit. It's open now, and will be in Austin for six months.

Clark will be playing with his band: King Zapata and Elijah Ford on guitar, JJ Johnson on drums, and Dayne Reliford on backup vocals and keyboard.

They're fresh off the announcement that Clark will receive a Texas Medal of Arts, one of the highest honors a Texas artist can receive. He's known for modernizing the blues — not overwriting past traditions, but bringing the established sound into popular music people love whether they're conscious of the genre or not.

The new store's neighbor Grimaldi's Pizzeria is bringing a pop-up bar to the event, and there will also be yard games, photo opportunities, and more, according to a release.

Bumpsuit is filling an auspicious space for minimalist fashion at Domain Northside. It'll spend its tenure at 11700 Domain Blvd. Suite 120, the former site of Austin's first Skims Workshop, which has since moved on to a permanent location in the same shopping center.

The two stores are very similar in aesthetic, with Trunfio's focusing on maternity and postpartum wear. Styles are generally made in neutrals or jewel tones, and cut in extremely simple shapes.

“After spending our summer on tour as a family with Gary and his band, we are excited to end the year at Domain Northside to coincide with the opening of our Bumpsuit store,” said Trunfio in the release.

"Doors" for the (presumably outdoor) concert next to Bumpsuit neighbor Vuori (11701 Domain Blvd. Suite 154) are at 7 pm; the show starts at 8:30 pm.
